3½" Diameter × 4⅜" High Stainless Steel Tall Pastry Ring — Paderno 47534-10

The 4⅜-inch wall gives soft fillings a round boundary while you assemble mousse, cream and other layered preparations. Add the recipe's base and fillings in controlled stages, distributing each layer evenly rather than relying on the ring to hold a loose mixture by itself.

Place the ring on a flat plate or tray before you start. Keep the support underneath during assembly and setting; an open-bottom ring is a shaping tool, not a sealed container. Select a preparation that can hold its shape once released.

Start with the empty ring clean and dry, and place it securely on a level supporting surface. If your recipe calls for a liner, fit it before filling. Allow the preparation to set as directed by the recipe before lifting the ring vertically, keeping the dessert supported underneath.

After use, remove food residue and wash gently with mild detergent and a soft sponge. Rinse thoroughly and dry before storing. Avoid abrasive pads that can mark the stainless steel, and avoid forcing or bending the wall when releasing the food.
